Emotion Regulation and Social Support in Deaf Adults: Empirical Findings from an Indonesian Sample
type: item
description: This study examined the contribution of social support to emotion regulation among deaf adults in Indonesia. A quantitative approach with a correlational research design was employed. The participants consisted of 122 deaf adults aged between 18 and 60 years who were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using the Social Support Scale and the Emotion Regulation Scale, which had demonstrated satisfactory validity and reliability. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression to determine the contribution of social support to emotion regulation. The findings revealed a significant positive contribution of social support to emotion regulation, indicated by a significance value of 0.004 (p < .05) and an R² value of 0.066. These results suggest that social support accounted for 6.6% of the variance in emotion regulation, while the remaining 93.4% was explained by other factors beyond the scope of this study. The findings indicate that deaf adults who receive greater social support tend to demonstrate better emotion regulation. This study highlights the importance of strengthening social support from families, peers, and communities while encouraging further research to identify other psychological and environmental factors that contribute to emotion regulation among deaf adults.

An Analysis of Digital Social Validation Behavior in Adolescents: Implications for Creative Counseling
type: item
description: The rapid growth of social media has transformed the way adolescents build social relationships and seek recognition through various forms of digital social validation, such as likes, comments, and followers. This phenomenon has the potential to influence adolescents' social and psychological behavior, thereby requiring greater attention within Guidance and Counseling services. This study aimed to explore adolescents' digital social validation behavior and identify its implications for the development of creative counseling. A descriptive-exploratory research design was employed involving 125 adolescents aged 18–23 years who actively use social media. The research instrument consisted of a Digital Social Validation Behavior Questionnaire developed using a five-point Likert scale and open-ended questions. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis, while responses to the open-ended questions were examined through thematic analysis. The findings revealed that the attention to digital feedback indicator demonstrated the highest tendency (mean = 3.56–4.42), whereas the remaining indicators were categorized as moderate to high. The thematic analysis further indicated that adolescents primarily use social media for communication, entertainment, and self-expression. In addition, respondents preferred experience-based counseling activities, particularly nature-based activities (56.5%), storytelling (43.5%), and music-based activities (42.4%). The study concludes that Guidance and Counseling services should adopt more contextual, participatory, and developmentally appropriate creative counseling approaches that align with the characteristics of adolescents in the digital era. The findings are expected to serve as an empirical foundation for guidance and counseling teachers and professional counselors in designing creative counseling services that are more responsive to the dynamics of adolescents' digital behavior.

Implementation Of Website-Based E-Counseling KOCAS (Student Confession Box) As A Medium For Disclosing Student Problems
type: item
description: This research examines the implementation of Website-Based E-Counseling KOCAS (Student Complaint Box) as a Media for Disclosing Student Problems in Schools. Guidance and counseling teachers can use media to help provide services to students. One of them is with a problem box, both physical and digital, which can provide students with a space to express problems without fear, helping counselors understand and handle problems proactively. Guidance and counseling have a very important role in the academic, social and emotional development of students, but there are still many negative stigmas attached to BK services in schools, especially at SMAN 1 Bulukumba. This study aims to analyze the implementation of E-Counseling Student Complaint Box (KOCAS) as a digital instrument in supporting more efficient service transformation and changing negative perspectives and stigmas as well as the limited implementation of guidance and counseling services for students in schools. The type of research is development research with data collection techniques used are interviews and questionnaires. The results of the study indicate that the website-based e-counseling system KOCAS (Student Confession Box) as a medium for students to express their problems at school has shown positive responses and is acceptable. A small group trial of 10 students with a counselor showed very positive (high) responses and is therefore acceptable. These findings indicate that the e-counseling system KOCAS is effective in helping students express emotions, uncover problems, strengthen the relationship between counselors and students, and eliminate the negative stigma surrounding guidance and counseling services.

The Effect of Gratitude on Social Comparison Among Emerging Adulthood TikTok Users in Padang City
type: item
description: The rapid growth of social media use, particularly TikTok, has increased individuals’ exposure to curated representations of others’ lives, which may intensify social comparison processes. This study aims to examine the effect of gratitude on social comparison among emerging adulthood TikTok users in Padang City. A quantitative approach with a simple linear regression design was employed. The participants consisted of 235 emerging adults aged 18–25 years who actively use TikTok, selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using standardized measurement scales of gratitude and social comparison. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS 25.

The Relationship Between Emotional Regulation and Anxiety Levels in Early Adult Women in Long Distance Marriage
type: item
description: This study aims to determine the relationship between emotional regulation and anxiety levels in early adult women undergoing long-distance marriage. This study uses a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The research subjects were 155 early adult women undergoing long-distance marriage who were selected using a purposive sampling technique. The instrument used was the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ) to measure cognitive reappraisal and expressive suppression strategies, which consists of 10 items with a 7-point Likert scale, and the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS) anxiety subscale which consists of 14 items with a 4-point Likert scale. Data analysis was carried out using multiple regression and hypothesis testing was carried out with simultaneous F tests, partial t tests, and coefficient of determination tests. The results showed that emotional regulation was related to anxiety simultaneously by obtaining a sig. value. The F test was 0.003 <0.05, and the partial t test results also showed that cognitive reappraisal strategies had no relationship with anxiety obtained a sig. 0.724 > 0.05 and expressive suppression was found to be related to anxiety obtained a sig. 0.001 <0.05, and the results of the determination coefficient test obtained an R Square value of 0.072. This means that emotional regulation strategies contribute to the anxiety variable with a proportion of 7.2% while the rest is explained by other factors outside the research model. These findings indicate that emotional regulation is an important factor in maintaining psychological well-being in early adult women in long-distance relationships. Therefore, it is important to understand how emotional regulation strategies can be optimized in facing the dynamics of long-distance marriage.

Strategies for Islamic Guidance and Counseling Students in Overcoming Academic Procrastination
type: item
description: Academic procrastination is a common phenomenon among college students and is closely related to time management and self-regulation skills. This study aims to identify the strategies used by students in the Islamic Guidance and Counseling Program at UIN Ar-Raniry, Banda Aceh, to overcome academic procrastination. This study employs a qualitative approach using a descriptive-analytical method. The research subjects consisted of five students from the class of 2024 selected through purposive sampling, with the criteria being active students experiencing academic procrastination. Data collection was conducted through observation and in-depth interviews, followed by analysis using NVivo software. The results indicate that all respondents experienced academic procrastination, including delaying the start and completion of assignments, late submission of assignments, a gap between plans and execution, and a tendency to choose more enjoyable activities over completing academic tasks. Contributing factors included internal factors such as fear of failure, perfectionism, low motivation, suboptimal emotional regulation, and mood dependency, as well as external factors such as social media distractions and a busy organizational activity schedule. The impacts experienced by students included increased anxiety, stress, guilt, rushing to complete tasks, and suboptimal academic performance. The strategies students use to overcome procrastination include breaking tasks into smaller parts, setting priorities, creating to-do lists, limiting social media use, reflecting on academic goals, starting with the easiest parts, and training themselves to begin without waiting for the right mood. These findings indicate that academic procrastination is closely linked to time management and self-regulation skills, which need to be continuously developed.

The sample consisted of 153 respondents selected using a purposive sampling technique, all of whom were early adults who play Roblox. Data were collected using a self-disclosure scale modified based on DeVito’s theory and a loneliness scale modified based on Russell’s theory. Data analysis was conducted using Pearson correlation. The results of the descriptive analysis indicated that the levels of self-disclosure and loneliness among respondents were in the moderate category. The findings revealed a significant positive relationship between self-disclosure and loneliness, with a correlation coefficient of r = 0.471 and a significance value of p = 0.001 (p < 0.05). These findings suggest that self-disclosure in the context of online gaming is not always associated with lower levels of loneliness, as digital interactions may not optimally fulfill emotional closeness needs. Therefore, self-disclosure has a significant relationship with loneliness among early adults who play Roblox in this study.

Emotional Leakage in Everyday School Interactions: A Descriptive Study of Grade VI Students
type: item
description: Hidden emotional struggle is often difficult to identify in school settings because students may present themselves as calm, happy, or socially functional while still experiencing discomfort, stress, or unexpressed emotion. This study examined how small behaviours and body language may reveal hidden emotional struggle in everyday social interaction among peers through the theoretical lens of Paul Ekman’s concept of emotional leakage. Using a descriptive quantitative design, data were collected through a seven-item Google Forms questionnaire administered to 20 Grade VI students at Cendekia Harapan School over two days. The survey focused on students’ observations of incongruent emotional presentation, their attention to subtle nonverbal cues, their own experiences of hiding emotion, and their views about the mental-health effects of prolonged concealment. The findings showed that 70% of participants had seen someone appear happy while seeming nervous or uncomfortable, 75% reported having hidden their own emotions, and 95% believed that hiding emotions for too long can affect mental health. These findings suggest that students already recognize nonverbal signs of emotional incongruence in daily life. The study contributes a school-based descriptive account of how emotional leakage is perceived by children and argues for emotionally supportive, non-diagnostic approaches to social-emotional learning in primary education.

The Influence of Adult Attachment on Rejection Sensitivity with Self-Esteem as a Mediator in College Students
type: item
description: This study aims to determine the effect of adult attachment on rejection sensitivity, with self-esteem as a mediator in college students currently in romantic relationships. The research method used a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The sample consisted of 156 college students aged 18–25 who had been in a romantic relationship for at least six months and were selected through quota sampling. Data were collected using the Adult Rejection Sensitivity Questionnaire (ARSQ), Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised (ECR-R), and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES). The A-RSQ consists of interpersonal scenarios with two items for each situation: anxiety about rejection and expectations of acceptance, each with a 6-point Likert scale. The ECR-R uses a 7-point Likert scale ranging from strongly agree to strongly disagree to measure the anxiety and avoidance dimensions of attachment. The RSES uses a 4-point Likert scale ranging from strongly agree to strongly disagree to measure individual self-esteem. Data analysis was conducted through prerequisite analysis tests, normality tests, linearity tests, multicollinearity tests, and path analysis to examine the direct and indirect effects between variables. The results showed that avoidant attachment had a significant direct effect on rejection sensitivity, while anxiety attachment did not show a significant direct effect. Self-esteem had a significant negative effect on rejection sensitivity and mediated the relationship between anxiety attachment and rejection sensitivity, but did not mediate the relationship between avoidant attachment and rejection sensitivity. These findings emphasize the important role of self-evaluation in the dynamics of romantic relationships in early adulthood, especially in understanding sensitivity to rejection. This study provides implications for the development of psychological interventions aimed at improving self-esteem and the quality of interpersonal relationships in coll…

type: item
description: The phenomenon of overthinking in school-aged children is increasing in the digital era, characterized by a tendency for children to experience excessive worry, difficulty managing emotions, and low self-reflection skills. This condition needs to be addressed through innovative Guidance and Counseling services that are appropriate for children's digital world. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of group guidance using digital journaling techniques in managing overthinking in children under the guidance of the Kampung bharu Guidance Center, Malaysia. The study used a qualitative approach with a Guidance and Counseling Action Research (PTBK) design implemented in three cycles, involving 11 children aged 11–12 years. Each cycle includes planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages, with digital journaling as an expressive medium to explore thoughts and emotions. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and content analysis of digital journaling, and analyzed using thematic analysis techniques. The results showed a significant increase in emotional well-being and self-regulation skills, with positive emotions increasing from 76.9% to 92.3%, negative emotions decreasing from 23.1% to 7.7%, and positive coping strategies increasing from 38.5% to 76.9%. This study confirms that digital journaling is effective in helping children recognize, manage, and reflect on overthinking. These findings offer an innovative intervention model that can be easily implemented in non-formal education to strengthen children's emotional regulation and mental resilience.

The Effectiveness of Group Guidance Services in Improving the Emotional Intelligence of Malaysian Students
type: item
description: Emotional intelligence is one of the key factors supporting the social and academic development of elementary school students; however, in reality, there are still students who struggle to manage their emotions, build positive social relationships, and express their feelings appropriately. This study aims to test the effectiveness of group counseling services in improving the emotional intelligence of elementary school students. This study uses a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental design through a One-Group Pretest–Posttest Design. The research subjects consisted of seven fifth-grade students from the Muhammadiyah Kepong Counseling Center in Malaysia who were categorized as having low emotional intelligence. Data collection was conducted using an emotional intelligence scale with five aspects: self-awareness, self-control, self-motivation, empathy, and social skills. The data were analyzed using statistical tests to determine differences in students’ emotional intelligence levels before and after receiving group counseling services. The results showed an increase in students’ emotional intelligence scores after participating in group counseling. This improvement was evident in students’ abilities regarding self-awareness and self-control, increased empathy, and the development of more positive social relationships with peers. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that group counseling services are effective in enhancing students’ emotional intelligence. Therefore, group counseling services can serve as one of the intervention strategies that guidance and counseling teachers or school counselors can implement to support students’ emotional and social development.

Effectiveness of Group Guidance Using Modeling Techniques to Enhance Student Learning Independence in Malaysian Guidance Centers
type: item
description: This research aims to determine students' learning independence at Sanggar Bimbingan Malaysia and examine the effectiveness of group guidance services using modeling techniques. The study employed a quantitative experimental design involving students at Sanggar Bimbingan Malaysia. Data collection utilized questionnaires to measure learning independence levels. Students were divided into experimental and control groups, with the experimental group receiving group guidance services with modeling techniques, while the control group received group guidance services without modeling techniques. Data analysis employed the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test and Kolmogorov Smirnov Two Independent Samples test. Results revealed that students with low learning independence demonstrated inability to regulate their learning process independently, particularly in determining learning objectives, selecting learning strategies, and evaluating learning outcomes. The findings indicated: (1) significant differences in learning independence within the experimental group between pretest and posttest after receiving group guidance services with modeling techniques, (2) significant differences in learning independence within the control group between pretest and posttest after receiving group guidance services without modeling techniques, and (3) significant differences in learning independence between experimental and control groups following treatment. This study demonstrates that modeling techniques integrated into group guidance services serve as a more effective intervention strategy for enhancing student learning independence, suggesting that guidance counselors should consider incorporating observational learning approaches to maximize students' self-regulated learning capabilities.

The Correlation Between Self-Efficacy and Academic Dishonesty Among Senior High School Students
type: item
description: This study aims to determine the relationship between self-efficacy and academic dishonesty among high school students. Self-efficacy refers to an individual’s belief in their ability to accomplish tasks and achieve specific goals. At the same time, academic dishonesty encompasses dishonest behaviors and violations of ethical standards in academic activities. This study employed a quantitative research method with a population of 346 students and a sample of 78 students selected using purposive sampling. The sample criteria in this study were students who had committed academic dishonesty as proven by screening results. Data were analyzed using Pearson’s product-moment correlation. The results indicated a correlation coefficient of -0.764 with a significance level of 0.000 (p < 0.05), demonstrating a significant negative relationship between self-efficacy and academic dishonesty. The coefficient of determination was 0.583, indicating that self-efficacy contributed 58.3% to the variance in academic dishonesty. Furthermore, a comparison between the hypothetical mean and the empirical mean revealed that students’ self-efficacy was relatively low, while the level of academic dishonesty was high. Therefore, the proposed hypothesis was accepted. Furthermore, based on the average score, the academic dishonesty score for male respondents was 50.76, while for female respondents it was 27.17. This indicates that the average academic dishonesty behavior was higher among male respondents than female respondents.

Application of Modeling Technique to Improve Learning Interest of Slow Learner Students in Elementary School
type: item
description: Low learning interest is one of the main problems commonly experienced by slow learner students in elementary schools. This condition affects students’ attention, participation, and willingness to engage in learning activities. Therefore, learning strategies that provide concrete and easily understood learning experiences are needed for slow learner students. This study aims to describe the implementation of the modelling technique in improving the learning interest of slow learner students in elementary school. This research employed a qualitative approach with a one-group pre-test–post-test design. The research subjects consisted of three third-grade students categorized as slow learners. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Learning interest was measured based on three aspects: attention, enjoyment, and enthusiasm. The results showed that the application of the modelling technique led to positive changes in students’ learning interest, indicated by increased attention during learning, more active participation in classroom activities, and improved self-confidence. Statistical analysis using the Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test showed a significance value of p = 0.102, indicating that the improvement was not statistically significant. However, the consistent positive behavioral changes observed in all subjects suggest that the modelling technique has a positive practical impact on improving the learning interest of slow learner students. Thus, the modelling technique can be considered an alternative adaptive learning strategy to support inclusive learning in elementary schools.

The Impact of Nomophobia on Learning Concentration and Its Management Through Guidance Counseling Services at MDTA Aek Badak
type: item
description: Current technological developments are advancing rapidly. These developments do not simply allow humans to live as usual; they have a major impact on human life. Students who do not hold or carry their cell phones feel uneasy or afraid because they do not bring their cell phones wherever they go. This term refers to nomophobia. This study uses a qualitative approach as a qualitative research design. This study will use in-depth interviews, while paying attention to data validity consisting of credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability. Data analysis can be carried out in various ways, ranging from data reduction, data presentation, to drawing conclusions. At MDTA Aek Badak, cell phone use has become a worrying habit. Students find it difficult to focus, become easily agitated when they do not have their cell phones, become angry when asked to stop playing, and often come to class tired because they play until late at night. Guidance and counseling are at the forefront of addressing this issue.In addressing nomophobia, guidance counselors not only provide advice but also offer emotional support to students. The guidance and counseling at MDTA Aek Badak play an important role in overcoming nomophobia by using preventive, curative, and educational approaches. Parental involvement in monitoring cell phone use at home makes it easier to change and maintain student behavior, which supports the success of guidance and counseling.

The Effectiveness of Group Guidance in Addressing Bullying Issues at Sanggar Malaysia
type: item
description: Bullying is a social problem that can negatively affect the emotional, psychological, and social development of elementary school students. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of group guidance services in addressing bullying problems among students at Sanggar Malaysia. The research employed a quantitative method using a pre-experimental approach with a One-Group Pretest–Posttest design. The research subjects consisted of six sixth-grade students who were identified as experiencing or being involved in bullying behavior and were selected using a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected using a bullying behavior questionnaire administered before and after the implementation of the group guidance service. Data analysis was conducted using statistical tests to determine differences in the level of bullying behavior before and after the intervention. The results of the study showed a significant decrease in bullying behavior after the participants took part in group guidance activities, which was indicated by increased social awareness, greater empathy toward peers, and improved ability to control aggressive behavior. These findings indicate that the group dynamics created during the guidance process allowed participants to share experiences, understand the impact of bullying behavior, and develop more positive social attitudes. Therefore, it can be concluded that group guidance is an effective intervention strategy for addressing bullying problems in non-formal learning environments such as Sanggar Malaysia. The results of this study are expected to encourage readers to reflect on the role of group guidance services as a potential preventive and curative approach in creating a safe, empathetic, and bullying-free educational environment.

The Effectiveness of Classical Tutoring Services in Improving Student Learning Motivation at the Sanggar Bimbingan Kampung Bharu, Malaysia
type: item
description: This study aims to determine the effectiveness of classical guidance services in improving students’ learning motivation at the Sanggar Bimbingan Kampung Bharu, Malaysia. The research employed a quantitative approach using a pre-experimental method with a One Group Pretest–Posttest Design. The study involved 10 students who participated in the classical guidance sessions. The instrument used was a learning motivation questionnaire based on a Likert scale. Data were analyzed using the Paired Sample t-test to examine differences in scores before and after the intervention. The results showed an increase in the average learning motivation score from 30.2 on the pretest to 36.8 on the posttest, with a mean difference of 6.6 points. The statistical test results indicated that the calculated t-value (12.69) was greater than the critical t-value (2.262) at a 0.05 significance level, meaning there was a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores. This finding demonstrates that classical guidance services are effective in enhancing students’ learning motivation. Through structured and interactive guidance activities, students were able to recognize their potential, foster enthusiasm for learning, and develop learning independence. Therefore, classical guidance services have proven to be an effective strategy to be implemented in non-formal educational institutions to foster students’ learning motivation. The results of this study are expected to serve as a reference for counselors and educators in developing guidance programs in non-formal institutions, especially for Indonesian children studying abroad. These findings highlight the importance of structured classical guidance in strengthening students’ internal learning drive, an aspect that deserves further attention in non-formal educational settings.
